| Abstract(in English) | The photopolymer material of poly(viny1 cinnamate) (PVCi) has been used to align liquid crystal molecules using linearly-polarized UV light, and the LC alignment mechanism on the films has been investigated. Comparing the LC alignment on rubbed PVCi films with that on UV-exposed PVCi films, it is shown that the side chains of PVCi molecules strongly interact with the LC nlolecules on the PVCi films and thus the alignment mechanism on linearly-polarized UV-exposed PVCi films is due to the anisotropic van der Waals interaction between LC molecules and optically-anisotropic PVCi films arising from the photo-induced anisotropic side chain distribution on the films. |
